Does this sound good.
Okay I found a recipe on the side of Whole Wheat Spaghetti that I am going to try out tonight. I did the math it would only be approx 300 calories for 1 cups.
Ingredients 1 box of Spaghetti Mushrooms(if you like, I am not putting them in mine I don't do mushrooms) 1 can of Peas 2 cans of Creams of Chicken soup 2 chicken Breast cut into cubes Parmesean cheese Salt ( I did very light salt like a dash) Pepper First I baked the chicken and cut it up when it was finished then I cooked the Spaghetti until done and mixed in the cans of Cream of Chicken, salt, pepper, peas, chicken. It then calls to put in a casserole dish and bake for 45 mins on 375 When I added all the calories together and diveded it by 10 servings because thats how many servings the recipe says it makes it was approx 300 calories. Does that sound Healthy |
It's not terrible... I personally wouldn't eat something like that because it doesn't have as much bang for the calorie buck as I'd like to get. Creamed soups can be high in sodium and fat. With a little tweaking it could be alrite!

Hmmm- it sounds like something Mom used to make when I was growing up...comfort food! I would probably tweak it, though...maybe replace one of the cans of soup with a can of low salt/low fat chicken both...add a whole package of frozen broccoli chunks...and maybe some diced, roasted red pepper. By adding the broccoli (a bag of ), it gives you a much bigger plate of food, without adding many calories, and the can of chicken broth helps lighten the caloric load.
I never could leave a recipe alone! |
I am not a fan of canned veggies. With the canned soup that is alot of sodium. How many people are you cooking for?
|
I don't cook with canned cream soups, but I believe they have low-fat low-sodium versions out there. I use those instead of the regular. I'd add more veggies too, but I'd use frozen or fresh not canned. I also wouldn't add any salt, even the low-sodium soups have a lot of salt in them.
